Just gave the old girl a quick check over after her run out today, all was ok until I went to clip her bonnet stay back up and bingo the plastic clip which is stuck to the bonnet broke!
Anyone know where to buy one from? (save me hunting around)

Tried to find the thing myself. I found exactly the same on a BMW K series motorcycle used as a cable tie. It was at a wrecker were I carefully removed the thing I then used glue to stick it to the bonnet again. If someone knows where to get them new, i would also like to know.

Mine snapped too. I bought one from my local dealer (Peninsula), they had them in stock and it cost about £1.50

Glena, why dont you just try you're local dealer? It would save messing about ordering parts from mailorder especially if you're not sure its the right bit.
